"...A three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit reversed a district court decision and declared the monument unconstitutional this month in a case filed by the American Civil Liberties Union. Speakers at the event expressed their support for the U.S. Department of Justice to appeal the 9th Circuit’s decision.

“War heroes have earned the right to be remembered,” Infranco said. “The memory of those who sacrificed their lives for our freedom shouldn’t be dishonored because the ACLU claims several people were merely offended.”

“The 9th Circuit chose a twisted and tired interpretation of the First Amendment over the common-sense idea that the families of fallen American troops should be allowed to honor them as they choose,” he added. “No one is harmed, constitutionally or otherwise, by the presence of a cross on a war memorial, but there is great harm to tearing these memorials down. The memorial cross should stand in honor of the sacrifice made by our troops.”
